Thomas Edison said: "If I find 10,000 ways something won't work, I haven't failed. I am not discouraged, because every wrong attempt discarded is another step forward."

I'm a few along the road!

My Relationship with Photography:

I recently discovered a passion for digital photography although haven't yet developed the skills to give me the results I now crave. I'm here using Flickr for inspiration and for motivation.

Being a technologist at heart, I'm exploring the many ways of picture taking - HDR, Multiplicity, IR filters, Long exposures and so on - and am loving it 100%. What I would like to do is take a good simple portrait but its just out of reach at the moment.

I do know that I just need to slow down and breathe before and after the shot. The camera is only a tool.

Currently using a Canon 450D and a Canon G9.

(btw YMMV - Your Mileage May Vary )
